Overview

Within the Chemistry Program from Southwest Minnesota State University, a student may choose from the following options: a B.A. in Chemistry or B.S. in Chemistry Education.

Students are given the unusual opportunity to obtain extensive hands-on experience with state-of-the-art instrumentation and to work closely with our professors on research projects.

Preparation

Prospective chemistry majors should have strong backgrounds in mathematics and English. Courses in the sciences are helpful but not necessary. Clarity and confidence in writing, speaking, and in the use of mathematics are the most valuable skills.

Placement opportunities

Completion of the B.A. degree in chemistry prepares a student to seek a career in areas in which a knowledge of matter, energy, and their transformation is important including the chemical, food, health, environmental, and energy industries.

Students frequently combine the B.A. degree with a second major such as biology, mathematics, and management.
